| 0:00.0 | What is your deepest why? And why is that even important? |
| 0:09.8 | Welcome to walking is fitness. This is a podcast of action providing a little extra motivation |
| 0:15.6 | to help you keep that fitness promise you made to yourself. Hi, I'm Dave. I started walking for fitness in 2013. |
| 0:23.5 | Still take an intentional fitness walk every single day. I'm walking right now and I would |
| 0:28.4 | love to have you join me for the next 10 minutes. Recently saw an article in Newsweek |

| 1:36.4 | which is a couple of feet off the ground. |
| 1:39.6 | And there's a metal railing around the deck. |
| 1:41.6 | She climbs over the metal railing. And again, you're watching |
| 1:46.2 | a 90-year-old woman do this so she can get to the back door, which I guess is unlocked, |
| 1:53.4 | or she's able to get in that way. And you're thinking, 90? This is pretty amazing. |
